Running WinXP pro here with CloneCD just fine...

The CloneCD SafeMode (SM) is really a 'last resort' because CloneCD's normal mode is way better. When running in SM CloneCD can't lock the drives exclusively and this is a problem when copying copy-protected Audio discs. The OS will suddenly 'spot' the disc during writing and will get confused and another coaster can be added to the collection.

So it's best to get CloneCD running in its normal mode. Recheck your ASPI layers (not needed for CloneCD but it's best to have an up-to-date layer installed). Recheck your busmaster drivers (VIA?) and upgrade them to the latest version. Recheck everything else
